I'm just guessing, but is that your commentary on the fact that the Mayans believed that the world would end when their calendar ended in December 2012?
ReplyDeleteThat's an Aztec sunstone so um guess not :) BTW there is no evidence that the end of Baktun 13 in the long count calendar had any significance in Mayan culture beyond resetting that particular count to zero; it's a feature, not a bug :)
ReplyDeleteI only mentioned the Mayans because someone mentioned the other day that New Age people were talking about the Mayan calendar. So, why have you used the Aztec sunstone?
ReplyDeleteFor the same reason that the Mayan city of Tikal appears in Star Wars, it has an exotic, evocative, familiar yet alien look and feel loaded with possibilities that is appropriate for a new year :)
